Child Support Act 1991

Collection of financial support - Discretionary relief in respect of penalties and pre-2021 penalties

135FA: Discretionary relief from incremental penalties unpaid before agreement entered into on or after 1 April 2016

You could also call this:

“Removing penalties for unpaid child support before agreements made after April 2016”

This part of the law used to talk about how you could get some relief from penalties that weren’t paid before you made an agreement on or after 1 April 2016. However, this section doesn’t apply anymore. It was removed from the law on 1 April 2021. This means that if you’re looking for information about this topic now, you’ll need to check other parts of the law or ask someone who knows about the current rules.
